MEI-2

CELE_F57B10.12, F57B10.12
mei-2 encodes a novel protein that contains a region similar to the p80-targeting subunit of katanin that is required for embryonic viability, alignment of chromosomes at the metaphase plate, and establishment of the oocyte meiotic spindle together with MEI-1; can interact with MEI-1 in HeLa cells and this complex can function to disassemble microtubules, expressed in the germ line, throughout the cytoplasm of most mature oocytes within the proximal gonad, and localization is mutually dependent upon MEI-1

Co-fractionation

Interaction inferred from the presence of two or more protein subunits in a partially purified protein preparation. If co-fractionation is demonstrated between 3 or more proteins, then add them as a complex.

Structural basis for disassembly of katanin heterododecamers.

Nithianantham S, McNally FJ, Al-Bassam J

The reorganization of microtubules in mitosis, meiosis, and development requires the microtubule-severing activity of katanin. Katanin is a heterodimer composed of an ATPase associated with diverse cellular activities (AAA) subunit and a regulatory subunit. Microtubule severing requires ATP hydrolysis by katanin's conserved AAA ATPase domains. Whereas other AAA ATPases form stable hexamers, we show that katanin forms only a monomer ... [more]

Affinity Capture-Western
Affinity Capture-Western

An interaction is inferred when a bait protein is affinity captured from cell extracts by either polyclonal antibody or epitope tag and the associated interaction partner identified by Western blot with a specific polyclonal antibody or second epitope tag. This category is also used if an interacting protein is visualized directly by dye stain or radioactivity. Note that this differs from any co-purification experiment involving affinity capture in that the co-purification experiment involves at least one extra purification step to get rid of potential contaminating proteins.
